Once amylase has broken down starch, can it break down another starch molecule?

Biology
1 answer:
Juliette [100K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Yes, amylase can be reused, and when fulfills its catalytic function, it is free to catalyze the breakdown of another starch molecule.

Explanation:

Amylase is an enzyme capable of catalyzing the breakdown of starch bonds, separating it into glucose molecules.

The enzymes, including amylase, have the property of being free and without structural alteration when catalyzing a reaction, to bind to the specific substrate and catalyze a new reaction.

Amylase is not consumed, unlike a reagent, so it can be reused in new reactions.

Which statement BEST describes how mutations are related to evolution?
Sever21 [200]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

D) Mutations lead to new genes, which may have an advantage over the old forms, causing the species to evolve.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Mutations are sudden, random changes that occur spontaneously in the genetic make up of an organism.</u></em> Mutation are caused by various factors which includes errors in meiosis, and other factors such as chemical mutagens.
  • <em><u>Mutations may be beneficial and may play an important role in evolution as they are raw material of genetic variation</u></em>. <em><u>Mutations may lead to genetic variations in the genetic make up of an organism . Therefore mutations are important to mutation since they create new DNA sequences for a given gene and thus resulting to new alleles.</u></em>

If your sample does not grow on the plate in the anaerobic chamber but does grow in the presence of oxygen, it produces bubbles
jasenka [17]

Answer:

it is an obligate (or strict) aerobe

Explanation:

By whether an organism requires oxygen or not for respiration. We can classify it as either aerobic or anaerobic.

Aerobic organisms require oxygen and anaerobic do not.

For aerobes, it can be facultative or obligate. Facaltative aerobes require oxygen but they can however switch to fermentation when oxygen is not available.

Obligate aerobes are aerobes require oxygen for cellular metabolism.

In the test the dextrose tube remained yellow because fermentation had not taken place.

Therefore we can conclude the sample contained an obligate aerobe which was catalase positive since it produces bubbles when Hydrogen peroxide was added.

When comparing energy and chemicals in an ecosystem?
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Chemical nutrients and energy tend to flow in the same direction for most of an ecosystem. The big difference is that the chemical nutrients are ultimately recycled in the ecosystem while the energy is ultimately lost from the ecosystem to the universe at large. Energy in any ecosystem ultimately comes from the Sun.
